Ok first off this is not a Pacman bashing. I'm a fan of the little fella but I do have one question. I have a t-shirt that points to Manny being an 8 weight world champion which is no mean feat but I can't seem to find a record of him winning a title at Featherweight only title fight was against Marquez which was a draw. Did he get a title after the IBF eliminator against Fahsan Battery which he didn't defend? I've listed the fights etc below.

WBC Flyweight - Chatchai Sasakul
IBF Super Bantamweight - Lehlohonolo Ledwaba
WBA IBF Featherweight - Juan Manuel Marquez (Draw so no world title)
WBC Super Featherweight - Juan Manuel Marquez
WBC Lightweight - David Diaz
IBO Light Welterweight - Ricky Hatton
WBO Welterweight - Miguel Cotto
WBC Light Middle - Antonio "concrete hands" Margarito

Cheers guys

He defeated Barrera to win the Ring Magazine title at featherweight. I'm guessing those shirts counted it as a world title.

Pacquiao has won 'legitimate' titles at 6 weights (those being one of the big 4 WBC/WBA/WBO/IBF) included in that are the WBO welterweight title he won at a catch weight of 145 pounds and the WBC light middleweight title he won at a catch weight of 150 pounds.

They might be counting the linear title, which he'd have won from barrera, who took it from the prince.

Ah cheers guys to be fair it does say 8 TITLES so i'm guessing the Ring Title is counted :)

certainly deserves to have been called a champion at featherweight.

barrera was top dog at the time.
